Lee's Orchard is a residential project at the edge of the Santa ClaraValley. Thirteen luxurious houses are clustered on the lower portion of a 50-acre site in the East Bay hills. The project includes a new working olive orchard with a grid of 1000 trees serving as the principal landscape feature of the entire developed portion of the property. The orchard is maintained as common area landscape with maintenance costs largely underwritten by the orchard's own production. Houses, roads, and drives are aligned with the geometry of the orchard so that the grid of trees remains uniform to screen the view of the project from the valley floor. The road divides around a central space that serves as the site for a small recreation building.  The houses are derived from California farmhouses, with deep set porches, white clapboards, and wooden trellises and handrails.
